Just don’t put any succulents in there as your girls will completely eat them.

I'm not a fan of succulents. Our 2nd business is air plants so anything along those lines I have plenty of choice & they can be put out of harms way while still providing interest & some shade. One or 2 of the girls have tried jumping for the dangling leaves of the elks but I got them high enough they just can't quite manage to reach them.

Sounds like a lesson learned the hard way.

Mrs. By Bob caught this sunset out the windshield on our drive last night.

I'm not very good with paint @BY Bob but this may give you some idea.
The girls can see the water @ various points anywhere along the North/East diagonal.
In summer, when I remove the curtain, they have a great view from inside the coop & can watch the moon rises if they like.
There are trees blocking their view @ various points. Some of these are rubbish ~ like the rubber trees that are a weed round here~ & get removed. Some will eventually grow tall enough to see under them. We are high enough they can see quite a lot most days.

Good morning folks Have a great day in Aus! Hope everyone else has had a great day as well.

How much sunlight does a Rosemary bush need? I think Mrs BY Bob might like to have one of those. Double help if it provides chicken cover.

I don't know Bob. Rosemary and thyme grow like weeds here.

Bob, if you can cover your rosemary and thyme over winter, it should come back in spring... Here in TN I don't cover and it comes back every spring.

Mel coming in for some food.

Thanks! I'm glad it's Friday because I want to clean out the henhouse and Saturday is around the corner. Only one meeting and a bunch of work to catch up on. I hope I can finish the day delighted with my progress on the to do list.

Perfect. Thanks. And that was pretty good art work.
